Guys, I know it's illegal to put an author's note as a chapter, but bear with me for a while. You should know something, something... important.

My inspiration tap for this story... has come to a shutdown. I've pretty much gotten myself in a writing block for this story as a whole, and if I were to force the whole thing out... it would take a decade, quite literally, for this story to be done. And by that time I don't know if I'll have the energy to move on with this story.

Which is why I mentioned on the Rio forum, in case you guys don't check it, since A/Ns are illegal chapters, that I was partially discontinuing it. If I were to write any chapter at all it might've taken ages... like I tried writing a few weeks back, then threw it away. I couldn't go on.

Right now I'm making the decision I know I said I wouldn't make. I'm not writing this story anymore.

I want to apologise to everybody, everywhere who have been anticipating for the next chapter. It's really beyond me to go on, really, and I'm really, very, so sorry to all of you, for breaking the promise that I'd finish this. But not everything can last, and I'm sorry. By the time I finish this story, which might take forever, I might be too busy to even think about this story anymore. And so once again, I'm sorry.

But there's another part. therobotchicken had suggested later that I pass it on to somebody who could carry on this story so as not to disappoint you all. And I went to the first person I knew, my good friend, Rapture at Sea, still one of the, if not simply the, best writer in this archive. I asked him if he'd like to write this story for me...

And he agreed.

Right now I'd like to shout out to him and thank him for taking this task for me. It's really an honour and I apologise for the trouble. I couldn't think of anybody else better to take this on for me. Thanks, Rapture, so much, and I have complete faith in you that you can do this and make this better than it already is.

I don't know how you all will respond. I'm sorry for being... rather irresponsible, with this story, I really am. But I really can't think anymore, but Rapture is an abundance of good writing along with inspiration, which is why I have complete faith in him that he'll finish this story in good time for you guys to enjoy and savour.

I hope you all can understand though, because my situation over here, well, I'm sure most of you can relate. I'm sorry for all the trouble caused and everything, but I'd just like to say thank you all for reading the 16 chapters I've posted and those who have followed me to this day. Right now I think it's only appropriate that somebody as talented as Rapture can carry this on and continue this story, and I think he'll do a better job than me in this story for the time to come.

Goodbye, guys, it's been fun writing this story, and it's been fun writing for you all. I'm sorry for the promises broken, but I assure you Rapture will do a much better job in this story than me, and you'll still be able to read and enjoy this story. I'll delete this chapter in a week, so please bear with me. But for now, bye... everybody...
